18 Treaties that the United States has broken.

We cannot pretend to forget that the First People of San Francisco the Muwekma Ohlone and hundreds of other tribes in California have not been given their due rights. 18 treaties signed between the U.S. government and the tribes were never ratified. It is time that Congress ratifiy the treaties because they were signed. It is time that Congress put the California Tribes on the Federal Register. We cannot have justice when a whole section of our population is hurting. Very soon Congress with admit that the Nation did wrong when it lynched many African Americans. Congress apologized when it did harm to the Japanese and imprisioned them. Congress did admit its guilt before on other important issues - but now is the time to give the First People of California and the tribes who really own this land - their Federal Rights and soverign rights to own and rule their own domain. We have many California Tribes that are hurting and as I said the time is ripe to give them their full rights and permit them to make progress.
